What in the Spy x Family (Super Ecchi Ed.) is this? Is grandma running a spy ring?? Did OG Mama and Step Mama run missions back in the day???

Whatever, I'm here for it.
I'm wondering what sort of asinine reason the Grandma had to make her a stepmom rather than a maid. Seems like a pretty messed up thing to do to someone who lost his mom at a young age.

Like what even is the mechanism to consider her a stepmom? The dad didn't marry her, so it'd be more like adoptive mom.
She probably noticed his mommy and abandonment issues. Still a bit weird, though.

First of all, I hope you enjoyed my barely competent scanlation. Everything you see here is made possible by nothing but a mobile phone that is kinda dying and my pure sheer will, so if you didn't like the quality, I still strive to improve it with every release I make. This is the first time in a while I spent a whole 11 hours scanlating a chapter, so I hope my effort is worth it for you guys to enjoy.View attachment 37778
Sorry for the weird and random ask (thanks for your work, btw), but can you use the english titles for the works you're translating on the beginning pages? Not sure why this popped into my mind, but I think it'd help with viewership.

Seems fun.

Is there a reason why okaa and baa aren't translated? What does soz mean?

Are we gonna get introduced to his father, or is step-mother meant to mean surrogate mother and Japanese doesn't have a word for it?

Soz is like a slang for sorry, also okaa-san and baa-chan not being translated is just my preference.🙇‍♂️

And apparently she doesn't seem interested to be wed to his father to be his step mother I think she just want to be his step mother because something happened to her and the MC's mother in the past.

You bolded the Shouta part, right? I thought you meant to imply something.
I was indeed implying something. This manga is going for the shota x onee-san dynamic, so I embolded the first part of his name as I found it funny considering the manga. Did you reply because you thought I was curious about its meaning?

I know about shota x onee stuff, I just thought shoutarou might mean something different in this context and I sought to correct you. After some research on my part, you're apparently correct in its use, so I wish to apologize for my hubris. Sorry.

IMO since those have a direct translation that doesn't sound weird in English, there's no reason not to do it.

Well this one looks promising. Scarred muscle "step"-mommy? Sounds like a good hook to me.

Wonder who that was in the photo she was crying over, her own mother? The MC's real mother? Or the grandmother that probably trained her?

judging by that photo I'm gonna guess that his mom cared for her when she was younger and she wanted to return the favour to the Shoutarou now that his mom is dead etc.
